CRUISE CONTROL SYSTEM (IF EQUIPPED)
Type A
OJF055037
Type B
OJF055037L
1. Cruise indicator
2. Cruise set indicator
The cruise control system allows you to
program the vehicle to maintain a con‐
stant speed without pressing the accel‐
erator pedal.
This system is designed to function
above approximately 30
(20 mph).
WARNING
• If the cruise control is left on
(cruise indicator light is illumina‐
ted), the cruise control can be
switched on accidentally. Keep the
cruise control system off when
the cruise control is not in use, to
avoid inadvertently setting
speed.
• Use the cruise control system only
when traveling on open highways
in good weather.
• Do not use the cruise control when
it may not be safe to keep the ve‐
hicle at a constant speed, for in‐
stance, driving in heavy or varying
traffic, or on slippery (rainy, icy or
snow covered) or winding roads or
over 6% up-hill or down-hill roads.
• Pay particular attention to the
driving conditions whenever using
the cruise control system.

• Be careful when driving downhill
using the cruise control system,
which may increase the vehicle
speed.
CAUTION
During cruise-speed driving of a
manual transaxle vehicle, do not
shift into neutral without depressing
a
the clutch pedal, since the engine
will be over revved. If this happens,
depress the clutch pedal or release
the cruise control ON-OFF switch.
NOTICE
• During normal cruise control oper‐
ation, when the SET switch is acti‐
vated or reactivated after applying
the brakes, the cruise control will
energize after approximately 3
seconds. This delay is normal.
